On January 19th, 2009 I was lucky enough to attend The Huffington Post Inaugural Ball.  I was there because of my amazing friends from CauseCast.org.  Brian Sirgutz and Levi Felix helped get me in and for that I am forever grateful to them.  Arianna threw an insane ball that had everyone from The Jonas Brothers, to Larry King, to Newark Mayor Corey Booker in attendance.  Pundits came out en masse as John King, Jeffrey Toobin, and many others roamed the crowd.  Hollywood came out to celebrate too.. everyone from Ron Howard to Ben Affeck was there.  You could really feel the incredible network of people that The Huffington Post has created.  I am so honored to be a blogger for The Huffington Post and I'm always very blown away by how much it has grown since I started blogging for them back in April of 2006.  Sheryl Crow, Will. I. AM, and Sting performed and they all rocked.  It was my first time seeing Sting perform so that was very special for me.  The Pix in this blog from the party are as follows... Me with soon-to-be approved Secretary of Labor, Congresswoman Hilda Solis!  The podium pic is me with Causecast's Levi Felix and Ryan Scott, and Causecast leader Aaron Cohen.  Also, check out wider the pic of Arianna addressing the crowd. you can see D.L. Hughley in it! Haha!  It was an incredible evening and I'm so grateful for having the chance to be there.

Here is a quick clip to see what it was like for 24 seconds inside the ball!

Here are my pics...
